I have changed from the inbuilt Wordpress search to a Google enhanced search engine that does search the PDFs. -

I've just checked the list of recordings in Peter Trimming's archive, and these cover the period you mention. You can see it here: I have this all digitised now, and will get it online in time. -

That is interesting, Wes. When I took over the website after Michel died, I did a lot of tidying up of the files. I found many files were missing: there were links, but the folders were empty. Do you still have copies that I could have to complete things? -

(I thought I had replied to this last night, but it seems to have vanished into the great bellows in the sky). You and I do not have an argument here, Don. Personally, I agree completely with you. The ICA is certainly not in it to make money. However, I sense there has previously been much confusion over who owns the copyright on what in Concertina World (CW), and there has been a sense of possession and ownership, some of which may have been misplaced. I won't go over the copyright debate here. The way we are tackling it now is to release past copies of CW online in PDF -

We have gone round the loop on this one in committee several times. I would also like to see the magazine issued optionally as a PDF, and in fact in the year I was Secretary of the ICA we agreed to trial it. I don't think it ever happened. However, things are changing, and I think there is a possibility that it will happen. The contentious issue is simply how it is kept within the membership for both copyright reasons and also to maintain it as a member benefit. This is why previous issues are available to the public online when a new issue is released. The current issue is available to m -

I.C.A. Music Archive - Recordings by Peter Trimming.
Colin Whyles replied to PeterT's topic in Concertina Videos & Music
Hello, Peter, I have your tape archive and am busy digitising it. I have quite a lot done, but still plenty to go. You say you think the quality isn’t that good, but you will be surprised how well it has all cleaned up. I do have the best tools that I know of, iZotope RX7. I sent you a friend request on Facebook and Messenger under the name Colin Whysall. There are a couple of things I would like to ask privately.
